Captain Busbar and The Copper Powered Components honor the dead: Captain Busbar Loves Shrimp Chips!
The atmosphere at Busbar Tower was filled with a mix of nostalgia and solemnity as Captain Busbar stood before the gathered members of The Copper Powered Components. They were gathered to unveil a new memorial, the “No Longer With Us Intern Granite Wall,” honoring the interns who had selflessly served their team but were no longer among them.
Captain Busbar cleared his throat, his voice filled with a blend of sadness and gratitude. “Today, we gather here to honor the interns who have left us, but whose impact on our team will forever remain. Each one of them has contributed to our mission, and their memory will live on in our hearts.”
As he scanned the names engraved on the black granite wall, he began to share stories, each one highlighting the unique personality and memorable moments of the interns:
“Let me start with Sarah, the girl in the wheelchair. She had an infectious enthusiasm and an unwavering dedication. I remember one time she rolled up to me with a mischievous smile and asked if she could get me some snacks. Little did she know, her innocent request turned into a hilarious adventure, with her returning with bags of chips, pretzels, and even a whole pizza. We laughed and enjoyed the feast together, realizing that sometimes the simplest tasks can lead to unexpected joys.”
Captain Busbar continued, sharing anecdotes about other interns:
“Then there was Jack, our tech-savvy intern. He had a knack for finding the best deals online. One day, he managed to surprise me with a massive delivery of assorted chocolates. Our headquarters turned into a chocolate paradise, and we indulged in sweet delights for days. Jack’s resourcefulness and love for snacks brought us together in a delicious way.”
He went on to mention other interns like Emily, who once brought him a tower of donuts, and Michael, who made it his mission to gather an assortment of exotic candies from around the world.
“And let’s not forget Max, whose dedication and sacrifice we will forever hold in our hearts. Max had a unique talent for finding the most obscure snacks imaginable. One time, he presented me with a box of snacks from a remote island, including seaweed-flavored chips and shrimp-flavored crackers. It was an adventurous taste experience, and we all shared a laugh as we explored the unusual flavors together.”
As the stories unfolded, the room filled with laughter and bittersweet nostalgia. The Copper Powered Components celebrated the interns’ vibrant spirits and cherished memories.
In the end, Captain Busbar approached the “No Longer With Us Intern Granite Wall” and raised his hand for a moment of silence. Then, with a determined yet gentle voice, he spoke, “To our fallen interns, your presence will forever be missed, but your impact on our team will never be forgotten. May this monument stand as a testament to your dedication, laughter, and the joy you brought into our lives.”
The members of The Copper Powered Components joined him, placing their hands on the wall, commemorating their fallen comrades and vowing to carry on their legacy.
The “No Longer With Us Intern Granite Wall” stood tall, its polished surface reflecting the memories etched in the names of the 33 interns who had left too soon. Each name represented a life that had touched the team in profound ways, and their collective presence reminded them of the journey they had embarked on together.
As they turned away from the monument, their resolve strengthened. They knew that their fallen interns would want them to continue their mission, to face challenges with courage, and to honor their memory through the legacy they left behind.
The Copper Powered Components moved forward, inspired by the stories of the past, fueled by the memories, and united in their commitment to making a difference in the world, one snack-filled adventure at a time.
